Making Valentines at K-State

There is a SafeHouse--Veronica's Voice-- for women who have been trafficked and are now away from that evil. The K-State Women's Center invited students to make valentines to send to the house. We are always touched by the care and kindness shown.
In fact, the staff at the table next to ours, from University Crossing Apartments, made valentines AND gave us muffins!
Thank you to all. click on pics to enlarge.

The Spirit In Which It Is Given

Well, there is a lot of pain and sorrow, sacrifice, rage and insanity, anxiety and confusion. And that is just the first 5 minutes.Please accept these stories and posts in the spirit in which they are given- to edify, to lift, to lighten, to validate, to weep.Because also: love and sacrifice, wisdom and justice, clarity and gifts. Sometimes it takes more than 5 minutes.Today I added K's story to this blog. She was a little 18 year old when she was deceived into a night of betrayal and crime; trafficked; bought and sold. it is profoundly disturbing that her betrayer was another woman, a wolf in sheep's clothing. hang in there, everybody. Everything is OK in the end. If it isn't ok, it's not the end.
